Educators first
Every decision we make starts with one question: does this make life better for teachers? If the answer isn't yes, we go back to the drawing board.
About Zippy
Built for educators.
Powered by technology.
Driven by purpose.
We're a team of technologists and educators on a mission to give teachers their time back, and give every student the quality education they deserve.
Our Story
We saw the problem up close
The teachers we knew were drowning. Friends, family, colleagues. Stacks of compositions every weekend, hours building rubrics from scratch, progress reports that took days. The part that mattered most, actually teaching and connecting with students, kept getting pushed aside.
As a group of technology specialists and educators, we knew AI could handle the repetitive parts of teaching, accurately and instantly. So we built Zippy as a direct answer to the daily struggles we saw in classrooms and tuition centres across Singapore.
We made the core tools free because every educator deserves access. Today, Zippy serves both individual teachers and education centres, and every feature we build starts with the same question: what's eating your time?
Why We Exist
Our Mission & Vision
Our Mission
To give educators their time back by building AI-powered tools that handle the heavy lifting of teaching (grading, lesson prep, progress tracking) so they can focus on what matters most: their students.
Our Vision
A world where every educator has access to intelligent tools that amplify their impact, and every student receives personalised, high-quality education regardless of where they learn or who teaches them.
What We Stand For
Our Values
These aren't just words on a wall. They shape every feature we build and every decision we make.
AI that empowers, not replaces
We believe AI should handle the repetitive work so educators can do what only humans can: inspire, mentor, and connect with students.
Trust through transparency
No black boxes. Teachers see what AI does, why it does it, and always have the final say. Student data is handled with the care it deserves.
Built for the real world
We don't build for demo day. We build for the teacher grading at 11pm, the centre juggling 200 students, the parent who wants to see progress.
Accessible to all
Great teaching tools shouldn't be locked behind enterprise contracts. Our core tools are free because every educator deserves access.
Learning never stops
We're learners ourselves. We listen to educators, iterate constantly, and stay humble about what we don't know.
Who We Are
A small team with a big mission
We're based in Singapore. Engineers and educators who care deeply about learning. Some of us have built enterprise software for years. Others have spent decades in classrooms.
We believe the best technology disappears into the workflow. It doesn't ask teachers to learn a new system or change how they work. It just makes things faster, better, and more consistent.
We talk to teachers every week, ship fast, and measure success by one thing: did we save an educator time today?
Ready to join the mission?
Whether you're a teacher looking for better tools or a centre ready to scale, we'd love to help.
